Hello,

I installed Virtual Box on my windows xp 32 bits, OK.
I have mi virtual machine like a .ovf file, when i tried to import it appears the error:

Fallo al importar el servicio virtualizado E:\VectorSF\Virtual Win7 IE9\Windows_7.ovf.
Error reading "E:\VectorSF\Virtual Win7 IE9\Windows_7.ovf": element "Section" has no "type" attribute, line 18.

Código Resultado: VBOX_E_FILE_ERROR (0x80BB0004)
Componente: Appliance
Interfaz: IAppliance {3059cf9e-25c7-4f0b-9fa5-3c42e441670b}

I don't understand it, i had installed it on my pc before and it worked right. I had to format my pc and now when i want to install it again, it give me this error.

Please i need help, i can't work with my tests without a virtual machine.

Thank you very much.

PD: I'm attaching an image about it.

Carmen.

Is this with VirtualBox 4.3.6? (current version at time of writing).

Try a search, this exact issue has been reported and discussed several times recently, though I thought it might have been fixed in 4.3.6.

Thank you so much.

I fixed it. I had to install an older versión of Virtual Box. :D

Thanks!!!
